my boyfriend is a chef

It was really an exciting thing for Xiao Yayuan to return to Sun Youchen's hands. It took him several days to recover from the joy of losing and regaining, and began to face real problems.The return of Xiaoyayuan to their hands does not mean that everything will be fine. Under the management of Liu Hecheng and Wang Guangxu in the past few years, Xiaoyayuan has become an empty shell. Now there are too many things to do. up.

Sun Youchen and Xi Chuan divided their work, and Chen Chuan was handed over to Xi Chuan to take care of it, while Xiao Yayuan was handled by Sun Youchen.Although the sign of Xiaoyayuan is still the same, the furnishings inside have long been changed beyond recognition. Sun Youchen decided to re-arrange, neither want the current one, nor return to the past. Get to know Xiaoyayuan.

Together with his company's designer team, Sun Youchen came up with a new design within half a month, and then found the interior decoration company that helped decorate Chenchuan to decorate, from top to bottom, from the inside to the outside. Completely refurbished.

After the decoration begins, chefs and shop assistants will also start recruiting.For a restaurant to operate, the most important thing is that the chef must be skilled, which is the basis for ensuring business. The second is service. The restaurant itself is a service industry, and excellent service quality is also a must.Under the leadership of Sun Youchen, the waiters of Chenchuan are quite professional and left a deep impression on the guests.

Whether it is Xi Chuan or Sun Youchen, they all started from the lowest level and know the importance of retaining employees, so they give more preferential treatment than their peers, whether it is salary, rest time or board and lodging. Strong human touch.The most direct manifestation is that since Chenchuan opened the store, only one waitress has resigned due to marriage and followed her husband to Guangdong, and none of the remaining employees have resigned. Every time the store needs to recruit new people, the old employees recommend their relatives Friends come over.

So when Xiaoyayuan wanted to recruit new employees, the employees in the store began to recommend their relatives and friends to apply for the job.The recruitment this time was much smoother than expected. Less than a week after the recruitment information was sent out, the waiters were all in place, and the helpers in the kitchen were almost recruited. Only the management and chefs were not in place. After all, they are all technical As a job, the higher the technical content of the job, the higher the requirements, and it is not possible to do it with this kind of heart.

Sun Youchen discussed with Xi Chuan, and tried to contact the store manager Zhang who worked in Xiaoyayuan before, and asked him if he could come to Xiaoyayuan as the store manager again. Sun Youchen is the store manager of Chenchuan, and he must not be able to take care of Xiaoya. garden.Store manager Zhang has changed several jobs frequently in recent years, but he didn't do it for long. Hearing that Xiaoyayuan had returned to Sun Youchen's hands, he agreed to come here without saying a word. The relationship is still very deep, especially the original owner.

Several of the chefs from Xiaoyayuan had already arrived in Chenchuan, and the others had already gone their separate ways. Xi Chuan and Sun Youchen tried their best to contact each other, and only one chef was willing to come back to work in Xiaoyayuan.

Both Sun Youchen and Xi Chuan had some headaches for recruiting chefs and chefs, because it was a matter of life and death for the restaurant, Sun Youchen said, "Do you think Uncle Lin is willing to help?"

Xi Chuan was silent for a moment: "The old man is now running a shop to entertain himself, and I really can't bear to disturb his life." Lao Lin's Maocai shop is still booming. The money is enough for them to live a good life, and I always feel a bit unbearable to let him go out to be the head chef.

Sun Youchen said: "But it is really hard to find a suitable chef, and it is very important." The chef is the key to Xiaoyayuan's revival. If the first shot is not fired, it will be difficult to regain its former glory in the future up.

Xi Chuan nodded: "That's right. How about we ask Uncle Lin?"

"it is good!"

So the two took time to visit Lao Lin. Lao Lin was still busy in his Maocai shop. He seemed completely unaware of the arrival of Xi Chuan and Sun Youchen: "Are you here? Sit wherever you want."

Xi Chuan smiled and said, "Uncle Lin seems to know we're coming."

Lao Lin put down his work and wiped his hands on his apron: "Xiao Zhang called me two days ago, and I heard what he said. I guess you will come."

Sun Youchen heard that store manager Zhang called Lao Lin, and he probably persuaded him to return to Xiaoyayuan, so he smiled and said: "It seems that Uncle Lin also knows that Xiaoyayuan has returned to us. Brother Zhang promised to come back to help us and continue to be the store Long, so I want to ask Uncle Lin, would you like to come back and be the head chef?"

Lao Lin waved his hand: "It's a good thing that Xiaoyayuan has been brought back. Congratulations. I'm getting old and I'm 66 this year. I'm afraid I can't do it anymore. You should find someone younger, I can't do it either." For a few years, just continue to open a small shop.” Being a head chef is not an easy job, although you don’t have to cook dishes yourself, the various overall arrangements in the kitchen, including the chef’s work arrangement, statistics of dish demand, ingredient procurement, and communication with others The communication in the front hall is all the responsibility of the chef, and the pressure is quite high.

Xi Chuan said sincerely: "Uncle Lin, we know that you are very satisfied with your current life, and Youchen and I didn't want to disturb you at first. Xiaoyayuan reopened, and its previous reputation was ruined by Liu Hecheng and Wang Guangxu. If Xiaoyayuan wants to come back from the dead, a highly respected and experienced chef like you must come forward, otherwise this brand will collapse like this. We don’t want to see such a situation, so we have come to ask you to come out again as a last resort.”

Lao Lin frowned: "I really can't find a suitable person?"

Xi Chuan and Sun Youchen shook their heads at the same time: "Really not."

Lao Lin's wife said: "Old man, if you are told to go, go. You go to the restaurant and we close this restaurant, or transfer it, so I can go back and take my grandson." Their son had just given birth to a second child recently, and the old lady I want to go back and hug my granddaughter.

Hearing what his wife said, Lao Lin said, "I'm getting old, and I won't be able to work for long. Do you really want to invite me?"

"We really want to invite Uncle Lin to host the kitchen, and we are working together with Brother Zhang. We are both acquaintances. I think it will be easier. We also know that Uncle Lin is old. If there is a suitable candidate, I will definitely not bother you old man It’s just that we need time to find a suitable head chef, or it’s okay for Uncle Lin to help us find one in the future.” Sun Youchen said.

Lao Lin nodded: "Okay, since you can trust me, then my old man will bite the bullet."

"Thank you, Uncle Lin!" Both Xi Chuan and Sun Youchen thanked Lao Lin unanimously. After solving the problem of the chef, they were really relieved.

When Lao Lin came out of the mountain, it was much easier to find a chef. He had been a chef all his life, and he had worked with eighty if not a hundred chefs, so it was very easy to find a few chefs. Familiar cooks are relatively easy, so in less than half a month, he helped put together a new team of chefs in Xiaoyayuan.This efficiency is much higher than that of Chen Chuan's chef team organized by Xi Chuan. Sun Youchen was very excited. Sure enough, Jiang is very hot. With Lao Lin and Lao Zhang around, Xiaoyayuan should not have to worry too much.

The decoration of Xiaoyayuan was not completed until the end of August, and the peak season of summer vacation has passed. They plan to open it in early September, so they can get acquainted with it, just in time for the peak season in the second half of the year.

On the day Xiaoyayuan reopened, Xi Chuan and Sun Youchen used Lu Zhenyou as a bridge, and invited almost all the owners of famous restaurants in Rongcheng. Many of them were Sun Boying’s friends. They heard that Xiaoyayuan had returned to his son’s hands. Naturally, I also want to come to the personal field.Xi Chuan and Sun Youchen were both helping out in Xiao Ya Yuan that day. Xi Chuan personally cooked for the guests and made several Xiao Ya Yuan’s original classic dishes, including catfish with garlic and steamed beef with rice dumplings. The menu of Xiaoyayuan was re-launched. In addition to the original classic dishes, Xi Chuan also added two new dishes inspired by "Xiaoyayuan Cookbook". He taught these recipes to Masters in the kitchen.

Sun Boying's old friends ate garlic catfish and steamed beef with rice dumplings, and they all praised the reappearance of the classic taste, and the former Xiaoyayuan has returned.Sun Youchen has been accompanying the guests all the time. Hearing such praise, he just felt his nose sour. This is the recognition of their hard work. Their wish is to make Xiaoyayuan regain its glory.

After eating this meal, Lu Zhenyou wrote an article for Xiaoyayuan when he went back, praising Xiaoyayuan’s successors for adhering to the tradition, not forgetting their original aspirations, and always working hard for the inheritance and development of Sichuan cuisine. The evaluation is very high, and it is in the industry It caused quite a shock.It was only now that Liu Hecheng knew that Xiao Yayuan had returned to Sun Youchen's hands, and couldn't help but grit his teeth with hatred. If he had known that they bought it, he shouldn't have sold it at that price.

After the reopening of Xiaoyayuan, except for the signboard and address, all the interior and exterior decorations have been redone. Although it still inherits the antique and elegant style, it has added many bright modern elements. After all, the designers are all young people. The entire decoration The style is both classic and fashionable, so that the elderly do not feel awkward, and the young people do not feel old, which is refreshing.

It's just that the business was still light at the beginning, and the situation of the seats was far worse than that of Chenchuan at the beginning. After all, many old customers didn't know that the boss had changed back, so it took time to wait slowly.Both Sun Youchen and Xi Chuan are mentally prepared. Fortunately, their sources of income now come from various sources. Apart from Xiaoyayuan, Chenchuan, online stores, Chuan Chuan stores, Weibo and design studios are all making money. To support the long-term development of Xiaoyayuan.

Of course, Lao Lin and Lao Zhang are not vegetarians either. They are both experienced caterers. They know that it will be a matter of time before Xiaoyayuan gets up, and the owner has enough funds to support their development, so there is no need to be too impatient.Through publicity and preferential activities, they gradually attracted many guests to come to dine. Over time, more people dined, and the good reputation on Dianping gradually accumulated, and more guests came. .Xi Chuan also keeps helping Xiaoyayuan to introduce new ones and change the menu, which is also a highlight to attract customers.

With the concerted efforts of everyone, after the peak of the [-]th Golden Week, the daily attendance rate of Xiaoyayuan has exceeded [-]%. Although it is not good, it shows that it is still slowly recovering.

After the [-]th, Xi Chuan is also preparing to go to Hong Kong, because the food competition in Hong Kong is about to start.Sun Youchen really wanted to go with them, but if they all left, no one would take care of Chenchuan, the company would no longer be in charge, and Weibo would not be able to be updated, so he had to stay and take charge of the house, and could only contact by phone every day .

Xi Chuan complained to Sun Youchen in the video. This competition was given a particularly shameful name called "God of Cooking Competition". Of course, the chefs who went there were all famous chefs, only he was a little-known one.Sun Youchen said: "How is it possible? Didn't you just win the championship in the famous chef competition last time? You are also a famous chef."

Xi Chuan couldn't help laughing: "That's just a joke, you take it seriously. No real famous chef has done anything."

"Famous chefs may be really good, but that doesn't mean you're bad. Mr. Lu recommended you for a reason. Didn't Mr. Cai in Hong Kong recognize your skills? Don't worry about it, just play well. "Sun Youchen said.

Xi Chuan said: "Actually, I don't have any psychological burden. Anyway, I am a nobody. Come here as a gain of knowledge, and I will definitely gain something."

"This mentality is right, come on, wait for your victory!" Sun Youchen encouraged Xi Chuan.

The contestants who went to Hong Kong came from different cities and different cuisines across the country, and the judges were giants from the Hong Kong catering industry.Among Chinese food, Sichuan cuisine has the highest reputation in the country and even the world. Sichuan cuisine, which is mainly home-cooked, has a low threshold and a popular taste, and is loved by the majority of Chinese people.When Sichuan cuisine is mentioned, everyone thinks of familiar home-cooked dishes such as twice-cooked pork, mapo tofu, fish-flavored pork shreds, and Kung Pao chicken. It represents deliciousness and cheapness, and it is completely different from Cantonese cuisine. It sounds tall, and now it is a representative of high-end Chinese food.And the judges of this competition are all from the Cantonese cuisine area, so Xi Chuan has no advantage at all in this competition.

Xi Chuan cooks his own dishes calmly and calmly. Everyone has different tastes and preferences. If you try to please someone by tricks, you will most likely lose sight of the other, so he only cooks according to his own way , Conquered the judges with his grasp of taste, broke through the encirclement among fifty or sixty famous chefs, and entered the finals.

When Sun Youchen heard the news, he was naturally very excited: "I knew you could do it. Come on, and win the title of God of Cooking."

Xi Chuan smiled: "There are still twelve people, how can it be so easy. I'll just do my best."

"Of course, don't have any burdens, just do your best." Sun Youchen said.
